Central Gaza hospital overwhelmed after mass-casualty school attacks

We’re still receiving horrific reports from inside the only health facility in central Gaza, the al-Ahli Hospital. The hospital was already overwhelmed from previous attacks, but today’s strikes caused further casualties and a great deal of destruction. Victims arrived at the hospital with severe bleeding and burns and the hospital does not have enough medical staff or supplies required for treatment.

The two schools that were targeted were next to each other and housing thousands of people who had come from different parts of Gaza. Some came recently from neighbourhoods of northern Gaza due to the recurring Israeli incursions that forced them to be internally displaced again.
